Reply to this message Ok, guys..I suppose I'm a few slices short of a loaf...but how do I vote?! I'm seeing so many cute pictures to vote on, think I'm voting then...nothing. Please help! Thanks a bunch! Jane
suek50 11/12/2006 6:25:22 AM
Reply to this message You probably are voting Jane! After you vote (by clicking on one of the 3 "Emilys" below a picture in the Gallery) - the very next time you look at the gallery it should say "you voted good," "you voted better," or "you voted best" depending on which Emily you clicked on. Then, the person who caught that picture (the first comment next to it will be by the person who caught it) gets points. There should be a running total of how many pts. each picture has. You can't vote on your own catches. But as you make catches, WE all vote on yours! Does that help?
suek50 11/10/2006 8:27:04 PM
Reply to this message Kittynurse's awesome strategy has thrown her into the lead...she humbly asked for "no votes" for her uploaded pix today, then hit us with a PUPPY PICTURE OF ELMO... upon seeing it everyone's fingers FLEW to VOTE, we couldn't help ourselves! Nice move, KN! :-)
kittynurse 11/16/2006 9:02:56 AM
Reply to this message Awwww, I'm sorry, Sue (head bowed in shame)! I had a weak moment after a number of days without Elmo and the other cute photos frenzy made me upload the ~ULTIMATE~ in cuteness: Baby Elmo. I'll try to be good from now on, and I ~*DID*~ ask fans *NOT* to vote........ ~{:^)}
EmEvangelista 11/6/2006 7:49:00 AM
Reply to this message Check out Katers with the lead!! I gotta spend more time at my computer!!
JenPlamp98 11/7/2006 5:35:12 PM
Reply to this message Yeah, she gets a lot of great catches!
Cheryl 11/4/2006 7:39:13 AM
Reply to this message Hi everyone. I'm leaving tomorrow (11-05-06) until next Saturday. We are going out of town on business. I expect to see some good catches when I get back! ;) Have a great week, everyone!!
JenPlamp98 11/7/2006 5:35:33 PM
Reply to this message Have a great week Cheryl!

Reply to this message What's Festivus and why is it important for us to get our prizes by then (assuming I *GET* any!!)?
Katers1 11/4/2006 12:21:45 PM
Reply to this message KNsis. go to wikipedia.com and search "Festivus". It was a holiday discussed on a Seinfeld episode and this will give you ALL the info you need. LOL!
Kittynursis 11/6/2006 5:45:49 AM
Reply to this message Thanks, Katers!
Sylverwynde 11/3/2006 2:01:31 PM

Cheryl 10/31/2006 6:40:12 AM
Reply to this message Oh no! There are some good pictures to be caught--where are you, fans?
Cheryl 10/31/2006 6:28:25 AM
Reply to this message Hi everyone. You can only catch 3 pictures until someone else gets some pics--good idea. lol!
Kittynursis 10/31/2006 6:56:37 AM
Reply to this message Is that really the rule, Cheryl? Did I miss that? Good idea, though!
Cheryl 10/31/2006 7:28:17 AM
Reply to this message It just happened to me today--so it's a new rule.
JenPlamp98 10/30/2006 5:33:40 PM
Reply to this message I have GOT to get some catches!!!!! I'm not even on the board yet! (sigh)
Sylverwynde 11/2/2006 7:55:56 AM
Reply to this message Me neither, I never seem able to catch Elmo. :o(
Elmo Fudd 10/30/2006 3:45:36 PM
Reply to this message I have one point!!!!!! I'm so excited!!!!!
Kittynursis 10/30/2006 6:16:17 AM
Reply to this message I'm movin' up in the world...or, at least, in this contest! Thanks for those who voted for me--I love you ALL!
Jane 10/29/2006 1:38:44 PM
Reply to this message Help! I've clicked on my favorite catches but my name isn't appearing! Can someone enlighten me? Jane
kittynurse 10/29/2006 4:52:50 PM
Reply to this message Hi Jane! I'm pretty sure that your name will appear up there when you receive votes for a catch *YOU* have gotten and other Elmo-fans vote for your catch. (I'm not sure why someone's name appears up above with a "0" next to it though.) And as mentioned before, you can't vote for your own catch. Click on the highlighted line up above that says "vote your catch earns" if you haven't already if you need info on the voting system.
Cheryl 10/27/2006 2:04:49 PM
Reply to this message hmm. I wonder where Kittynursis is..
Kittynursis 10/27/2006 2:44:19 PM
Reply to this message I must be on a different schedule than all of you cuz I can't seem to get any good catches {:^{
Cheryl 10/27/2006 4:36:26 PM
Reply to this message Hi. Glad to see you stopped in :+) I just happened to have a day where I could actually try to get some pictures. Have a great weekend everyone!
suek50 10/28/2006 7:31:02 AM
Reply to this message Don't worry, soon as you do, we'll vote like mad!
Kittynursis 10/28/2006 8:30:45 PM
Reply to this message Awww, that's so nice! Thanks, Sue!!!
cats 10/27/2006 11:34:42 AM
Reply to this message Hello everyone...Can anyone tell me what this voting is all about? I have been clicking on Emily and going nowhere ! Thanks
EMH 10/27/2006 12:35:19 PM
Reply to this message Every time you click on Emily the person who added that picture to the gallery gets a point (or 2 or 3), not you. To get points, you will need to be the first person to add a particular picture to the gallery. You can do that just by clicking it on the home page.
EmEvangelista 10/27/2006 9:04:56 AM
Reply to this message This is going to be cut-throat -- I can tell!! The catches are being caught at an unprecedented rate! Sue is going to be tough to beat!!
kittynurse 10/27/2006 9:19:50 AM
Reply to this message Yup-- I've already upped my meds TWICE today! I'm on my 5th pot of coffee and I've started smoking cigarettes again! I've called out sick from work, and I'm getting the shakes!
EmEvangelista 10/27/2006 9:42:36 AM
Reply to this message LOL -- OK OK! I'll vote for your catches -- just don't do anything you'll regret! he he

Reply to this message No taunting required, Kn, my crystal ball shows you winning this easily! I'm traveling quite a bit between now and the end of the contest, so I don't think I'll have a shot...
kittynurse 10/26/2006 4:28:59 PM
Reply to this message Well, I'm *DEFINITELY* gonna hafta quit my job so I can spend more time at the computer. I'm sure the fabulous prizes will be worth it all!
